The Economy Is An _______

Most Americans believe the 57,000+ American refugees are
also human and should be treated as such. That is nice.

Dear Junior,
   Three questions:
1) Would the book be twice as fat if the truth was added in?
2) Does it contain lovely etchings?
3) If you make a profit, which charity(ies) will you sponsor?
*
If "the economy is surging" means the wealthy ran out of hiding places and who else needs livable wages anyways, the economy is an _sshole.

"A Genuinely Significant Difference"

Two paragraphs, out of order, from "How Sarah Palin could change the media, and why she won't" by Alyssa Rosenberg, Washington Post: http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/act-four/wp/2014/07/29/how-sarah-palin-could-change-the-media-and-why-she-wont/


"This has always been the great contradiction of Palin's career. When she arrived on the national stage, Palin's family members and her fluidity in talking about them were a significant part of her appeal. But Palin also got plenty of clear signals that there were rewards to be had in playing to ugly, inflammatory political narratives, and she did not stint in pursuing them."


"Watching Palin read to and play with Trig is a genuinely affecting display of emotion and patience. And when Palin discusses the teachers and therapists who work with children like Trig, helping him learn to speak and eat solid food, her concern and hopes for him are both modest and clear. If Palin were going to embark on a focused media career, this is a place where she could tell stories that are often excluded from mass culture and where she could make a genuinely significant difference."

To Distract Us

The Bill of Rights for Voting Equality

State Department spokesperson says snooping on right wing allies is the new U.S. way of being a partner and an ally. And when the other partner and ally is Israel spoiling for a fight and willing to kill innocent citizens to prove it, the spokesperson said peace is a quieter and cheaper option, though neither ally nor partner finds it interesting or profitable.

Reprobates

New millennium tractarians, wasps, and taxidermied power shirts are currently enjoying a coagulation of fossils to wipe Women's Equality Day off the calendar. They wanted you to know.

The new tractarianism of 2014 (the last one was churchy and ended in 1841) = a countermovement against progress and pragmatism, and attempts to force everyone backwards into an earlier time of existence, with primitive rules and regulations for those without bribe money. What happened to the comics code authority?
*
The greed of big money in politics is our big big biggest problem. Neither the Clintons nor the
Obamas are ready or willing to admit that fact. The hunt for more money more money is sad to watch. They went to college to ask people for money?

Does anyone want to dicker in the not so free American
global market place it if means
Dereliction
Incompetence
Cowardice
Kickbacks
Extortion  and
Reprobates?

The Existing Constitution

From "Areopagiticus" by Isocrates (436 - 338 bc)


(18) "And yet how can we praise or tolerate a government which has in the past been the cause of so many evils and which is now year by year ever drifting on from bad to worse? And how can we escape the fear that if we continue to progress after this fashion we may finally run aground on rocks more perilous than those which at that time loomed before us?"


(23) "Furthermore they considered that this way of appointing magistrates was also more democratic than the casting of lots, since under the plan of election by lot chance would decide the issue and the partizans of oligarchy would often get the offices; whereas under the plan of selecting the worthiest men, the people would have in their hands the power to choose those who were most attached to the existing constitution."

Is This a Problem?

Let's say there are 3 branches of government in the U.S. And let's say 2 of the branches have members who are actively working against the 3rd branch. The President himself is 1 of the branches, the Executive branch. The 2nd is the Legislative branch, that would be the Senate and the House of Representatives. The 3rd is the Judicial branch, which has no right to be the executive nor legislate law. Again, let's say far right wing members in the Senate, House, and supreme Court are actively working against the President and they are also actively working against all of us who are not the very wealthiest. Is this a problem?

"Money Has Been Happy"


"Money matters more than mouth (the old challenge: put your money where your mouth is) and money has been happy with Obama beginning six weeks after he took office, and it has never looked back."

or
"Is Obama worst or best president"

See how your Chicago alderman/alderwoman votes on issues such as education, housing, and minimum wage. For instance, what is James Cappleman (46th) doing? Who is insane and who is just greedy? Who votes your preference and who doesn't? Who needs to retire? Take back Chicago!

People of U.S.A.

John Andrew Boehner

As you - John Andrew Boehner - have with purpose and deliberation willfully damaged your Constituents, the People of the United States, the People of the World, and the reputation of the United States, without mentioning your on stage and off stage redundancy, you must return all salaries, benefits, bribes, and hidden monies you have accrued from February 1, 2009 through July 18, 2014. Go directly to prison. Have a pleasant day.

Worth It

Hungry ghosts and the men who do their bidding
Think going downhill backwards is the way of ridding
Their minds of scarey stuff
But it's self-destructive bluff.
Love the children and tell them you're kidding.

Fracking & undermining the democracy bride
Phony recovery stories are a dangerous game.

It'll be so worth it!

Free!

Here in the Chicago area, we like to call private-for-profit schools "charter" schools because they are newly created corporations with special privileges. One of the special privileges is taking money from those who still pay their taxes. And the powers that be see the future with the rest of the public school students on isolated home computers - the oh so private public school system of the future. Most students will not do well but they will never have to leave the house. Organized sports and worshipping the permitted God(s) can all be done by avatar. Again, most will not do well, but it is free.
K through 12! Free!

They say John Boehner has not been sober since 1956. That is what marinates the pickles in his brain. That is what helps him to sue President Obama for his continuation of the Bush Jr. policies, including the continuation of Bush's eternal State of National Emergency. Junior never got sued by Boehner because Bush Jr is the only man alive who could lasso a tumbleweed, throw it onto his own path, and then trip over it. John's pickles admire such a skill.

It was all so much work, and he had to party and abuse people and party some more and abuse people some more and.

Arm processed by Robot #312, his royal electedness walked right on the line between his unclean bosses and the unwashed masses. All he was trying to do was come out alive on the other side with at least one dark hair left. The unclean bosses had been most attractive to him because they offered up free travel tickets and free smile checkups. The unwashed masses offered only their undying gratitude. The not so free market valued gratitude at less than a nickel a gross ton. And so the guessers guessed what the semifinal outcome would be and the line told his royal electedness to have a nice day and give its back a break by walking somewhere else for awhile.

Mortals Hath Possessed

Forgotten Books is the "world's largest online library with 484,473 books available on demand."

George Washington wrote a letter in 1788 to his friend, the Marquis de Lafayette. He wrote of the merits of the proposed U.S.Constitution and said there were some real defects, but they were not radical and he would not touch upon them at that time. Here is a part of it.


    . . . With regard to the two great points (the pivots on which the whole machine must move) my Creed is simple:
   1st -- That the general Government is not invested with more Powers than are indispensably necessary to perform the functions of a good Government; and, consequently, that no objection ought to be made against the quantity of Power delegated to it:
   2ly -- That these Powers (as the appointment of all Rulers will forever arise from, and, at short stated intervals, recur to the free suffrage of the People) are so distributed among the legislative, Executive, and Judicial Branches, into which the general Government is arranged, that it can never be in danger of degenerating into a monarchy, an Oligarchy, an Aristocracy, or any other despotic or oppressive form; so long as there shall remain any virtue in the body of the People.
   I would not be understood my dear marquis to speak of consequences which may be produced, in the revolution of ages, by corruptions of morals, profligacy of manners, and listlessness for the preservation of the natural and unalienable rights of mankind; nor of the successful usurpations that may be established at such an unpropitious juncture, upon the ruins of liberty, however, providently guarded and secured, as these are contingencies against which no human prudence can effectually provide. It will at least be a recommendation to the proposed Constitution that it is provided with more checks and barriers against the introduction of tyranny, and those of a nature less liable to be surmounted, than any government hitherto instituted among mortals, hath possessed. . .

How admirable,

and whoever slips you the most cash, fantastically great things
can be accomplished, right?

The following words are from The Declaration of Independence of
July 4, 1776. The words refer to King George III, the German king of England. The funny part is that the words also apply to the party of John Boehner, Lindsey Graham, Jeff Sessions, Mitch McConnell and whoever is currently running the state of Michigan.
Substitute  "They have" for "He has":


He has refused his Assent to Laws,
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing Importance, unless suspended in their Operation till his Assent should be obtained;
He has dissolved Representative Houses
He has refused for a long Time, after such Dissolutions, to cause others to be elected;
He has endeavoured to prevent the Population of these States; for that Purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their Migrations hither,
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone,
He has erected a Multitude of new Offices, and sent hither Swarms of Officers to harass our People,
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil Power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution, and unacknowledged by our Laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended legislation:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with Power to legislate for us in all Cases whatsoever.
He has excited domestic Insurrections amongst us,
